Snap-On Bottom Door Sweeps

This drip rail gets pushed onto the bottom of your frameless shower door. It deflects water away from the shower door while the dual fin sweeps underneath hold water inside the shower.

These seals work best with a 7/16" to 1/2" gap under the door.

Available to Buy Here:

31" lengths   1/4" glass   3/8" glass   1/2" glass

  PRO-TIP FOR BOTTOM DOOR SWEEPS

If you are getting water leaking from underneath your bottom door sweep, there is a good chance the fins on the bottom of the sweep are not touching the shower curb/sill.

TRY THIS: Put clear setting blocks inside between the bottom of the glass door and the sweep. This will push the bottom sweep down so the fins touch the curb.

BUT: Don't add so many shims that the fins are curled over because this will cause the plastic to rip over time and make the door hard to open.

Note: Space Shims 6 - 12" apart inside the bottom sweep, or as needed.
